Re: Big Brother 9 - **Spoiler and Speculation Thread**

Looks like the Arkansas guy isn't on the show. One of the casting directors posted on another site that she's gotten many e-mails about him, but she said that they haven't even casted anyone yet (this was at the time the rumor was first released).

So Tony Westbrook is definitely not on this season. For one thing, I posted before that a casting director (it was Robyn Kass) publicly said on another site that she has received many e-mails about Tony, but she hasn't even heard of the guy before all the e-mails.

Then someone who knows him posted some info on him. I read it a while back, so I'm trying to remember what he said. I remember him saying that Tony's one of the biggest liars ever and that he has a record, but that's all.

Gosh, the guy is definitely a good liar. This rumor has been talked about on so many sites.

Re: Big Brother 9 - **Spoiler and Speculation Thread**

Well I think the rumor spread like wildfire because it was published in a newspaper. Everyone seems to think (rightly so) that newspapers are credible sources of information. It looks as though this Tony character fooled the newspaper staff as well. If he's a habitual liar, I'm sure he's good at what he does. He probably contacted the newspaper, promising them the inside "scoop". Now they look like the ones who can't get their facts straight.

There are all kinds of rumors out there. I read somewhere that the mystery extra houseguest from last season, Samantha, might get a chance to be in the house this season. She was the one that was shown on the BB preview on TV Guide Channel but never made it into the house.

Just saw an ad during TAR. It said there were 14 housemates, so the upcoming winter season will probably not be only 6 weeks long (unless there's something like a double elimination each week, but I doubt they'd do that).
